Clear And Present Danger (1994)

Ernesto Escobedo: Who is doing this to me?
Felix Cortez: If I were to guess.
Ernesto Escobedo: No, that is not I asked of you, to guess. I can guess.

Captain Ramirez: The chicken is in the pot, over.
Clark: Cook it.

The President: These drug cartels represent a clear and present danger to the national security of the United States.

James Cutter: Are you suggesting a course of action, sir?
The President: The course of action I'd suggest is a course of action I can't suggest.

Jack Ryan: Said anything yet?
FBI Agent Dan Murray: Yeah. "We're innocent."
Jack Ryan: Till the D.A. offers them a deal.
FBI Agent Dan Murray: He already has. Regular or extra crispy. He was either referring to fried chicken or the electric chair.

Felix Cortez: What would you say if I promised you that I would reduce the cocaine shipments to your country by half?
James Cutter: I'd say you were using too much of your own product.

Jack Ryan: Who authorized this?
Ritter: I'm sure they'll ask you that.
Jack Ryan: Who authorized it?
Ritter: I have no recollection, Senator.

The President: So go down there, establish it.
Jack Ryan: Go down where?
The President: Colombia.
Jack Ryan: Who, me?

Felix Cortez: The machine is still on, Moira.
